Addressing the demand for natural and healthy products, Givaudan has made several key acquisitions and investments in 2017 in response to this global shift. At the start of the year, the company acquired natural and organic flavor provider Activ International. Following this acquisition, Givaudan acquired natural dairy provider Vika B.V. in early September and finalized its acquisition of Centroflora Group’s nutrition division (Centroflora Nutra) in May 2018.
